Enough is Enough- Big Robert publishes open letter to Mister Bennett as entitlement overloads into anger

Big Robert has had enough, indeed Enough is Enough for big Boabae as he becomes a wordsmith to reflect on the shambles of football club which sends him regularly into the depths of despair.

The sense of entitlement from loyal bears is jaw dropping. As if running a football club with built-in disadvantages in a two horse race isn’t difficult enough it isn’t ridiculous to suggest that the demands of Gullible bears will forever sink the club even if they were somehow to uncover a viable strategy for success.

Any fan born from 1980 onwards believes that winning titles and trophies is the norm, they have fed that into a newer generation of supporters who have only known Celtic dominating Scottish football.

Rangers fans from 1965 onwards have only witnessed Celtic being successful with the exception of the Murray years which has created the current monstrous expectations.

Those fans of the sixties and seventies saw a level of success but the current crop has been starved of triumphalism, the less they receive the more that they crave which has led to the current situation where manager’s have to be sacrificed every autumn as the new season brings unwelcome reality.

Over on Rangers Media Robert let it all hang out with this introduction of

Absolutely sick of how the club is run and yesterday was the last straw for me. The absolute state we’ve found ourselves in since 55 and the recent off field goings on has just absolutely scunnered me tbh.

Spent last night debating whether or not to draft a letter but in the end thought f it I’ve got nothing to lose it either gets some traction or not just sick of being all talk and no action and the board need to be held to account so wanted to do something even if its something small. I’m not the most fluent when it comes to writing a letter so any ideas on how to improve the content is welcomed before I print it off, was thinking of printing in the range of 20 to 50 copies to post to the front door and around the stadium on either Thursday, Friday, Saturday afternoon.

Then he launched into:

To Mr Bennett and the board of Rangers Football Club

The poor form that has followed on from last season and appalling results earned on the pitch that culminated in an early exit from the champions league qualifiers and embarrassing 3-0 derby defeat at the weekend is quite simply unacceptable. Additionally, the issues surrounding the development of Ibrox stadium, the lack of structure and organisation at executive boardroom level and football operations and absence of adequate communication from the club has resulted in the fans becoming disillusioned with the current regime. On behalf of the entire fanbase we demand transparency in regards to the following 6 questions:

1) Starting from last season why did the board appoint an inexperienced manager in Michael Beale and why was there no Director of Football in place to oversee his handling of incoming transfers?

2) Why is there an apparent lack of planning for the future that has been shown by the departures of Zeb Jacobs, Ross Wilson and James Bisgrove and the resulting search for respective replacements.

3) Regarding the player trading model addressed by Mr Bennett in his latest interview, why were players such as Ryan Kent and Alfredo Morelos not sold at the peak of their value and allowed to leave on free transfers? Furthermore, why have subsequent incoming transfers contradicted this model?

4) Why was an overseas friendly against our rivals considered a feasible idea?

5) Due to the delays in delivering the material needed for the ongoing development to Ibrox Stadium and the subsequent relocation to Hampden as a result why was the ordering of the said material not completed in sufficient enough time to accommodate delays and to ensure that building work could commence following the final home match of last season?

6) Why was Mr Clement awarded a contract extension before the season had started when results and form didn’t justify this?

The fans are the lifeblood of this great institution and have stood by the club through its darkest days from 2012 and the journey through the lower divisions, the tremendous and unwavering degree of loyalty shown by the fans is unmatched anywhere in world football.

However, Rangers Football Club has certain standards and traditions that have been safeguarded by stalwarts such as Bill Struth and the late great Walter Smith MBE and as the custodians of the club you have failed in your duty of meeting these standards and traditions and the fanbase has finally lost its patience. For the good of the club we demand you respond to the above issues raised.

Enough is enough.

Perhaps if Mister Big Robert got off his hands and knees to address the realities of 2024 him and his fellow bears might get to sample some success rather than drowning in expectations fuelled by Deludemol.
